It's the next day after the elections and Obama won. Although he was not my first choice he is now the President that will come into office in January. I honestly don't agree with a lot of his policies, like the raising taxes on people that make 250k or more, or was it 200k or was it 150k. It's hard to keep track of what the number really is. I don't make anywhere near those numbers however I don't think that it is fair to tax someone that has worked hard and are being rewarded with a high paycheck. I'll have have to wait and see if that happens. I hope that it doesn't. I'm also looking forward to my taxes staying the same. I don't believe that they will go down. I also look forwarded to having my health insurance cost go down because I am one of the majority of Americans that have health care. Although I may not be able to get the higher raise or I will be asked to do more at work for less pay and my bonus may not be as big as they have in the past because my employer will need to pay more for my health care. Not to mention that I may have more taxes come out of my check because less money is going toward paying for health care before taxes. So I maybe taking home less money not more, but my health care cost for me will be less. I guess it is patriotic to pay less in health care and more in taxes. Just my speculation though.
What about the people that don't have health care. Obama said that they will be able to get the same health care that people have in Congress. How will that be paid for? Just a question. He can just pay for the extra with the higher taxes on the rich. It's only 3% higher so will really cover the cost? My guess that it is not. How will it be paid for if my taxes will not go up? Just another question.
Well look forward to having lower Health Care and getting money from the rich.
